PATC Charlottesville members are getting out to clear the trails in Shenandoah National Park after the big wind event in December. Skyline Drive was closed until early February, but now it is open and folks are helping remove the many blowdowns, leaners, and branches everywhere. The focus has been the Appalachian Trail. The club section from Rockfish Gap to McCormick Gap is clear, from Jarman Gap to Sawmill Run is clear, and now from Turk Gap to Crimora Lake Overlook is open. Volunteers this week included Iva Gillet, Kathy Thornton, Mark Perschel, and Marit Anderson. One trail at a time!
